You are just couple hours late for my SD problem.

Have spent morning using few linux and win tools to manage my original Pico SD. The directory structure inside picoware was real mess…. Now trying with v 1.52

I am not sure I’m following you!
Are you working on your own project?

Could it be that the libjson-c-dev package and library is missed to be mentioned in the readme? Is the lib required? Is the code compatible with GTK4 or only with GTK3?

No, I am just sorry you did not published your solution early this morning :stuck_out_tongue:

ahh!
I have another utility that clones the original sd card to any size sd card - I am working on refining that utility. I will post some time during the week.
